I have never dyed my hair before. Is this one easy-ish to use for beginners?

Yes if it is Hydrience but it isn't being made any longer. I still buy it if I can find on internet. You can write to Clairol and they can tell you what you can use in its place. I'm a natural blonde (dirty blonde) and I use it only to cover what little grey I can see. If you can find it on the Internet make sure the contents are ok not old.

It works well and it is not too light. Its darker than a strawberry blonde. My hair is really fine and shorter than yours and I use half of a box each time. I would say a full box would be plenty for you. Here's a tip....when you mix it, let it sit for at least 90 minutes before putting it on your hair. Then you don't have to leave it on as long. I have lots of gray to cover so I leave it in about 45 mins after letting it sit for 90. Sorry I can't explain the color better....but I really like it.

I am a hairdresser who has been using this off and on for about 20 years. I'm a natural level 5 . I have mixed white now especially on the front right part, only about 25% grey throughout I would say. I have fine curly hair. Do not use heat or a cap. It needs to dry on your head. 1 hour is perfect. Do not shampoo out, just rinse though all the way through till water runs clear. I do not shampoo for several days, though you can after 24 hours. I use this and occasionally Clairol soy creme permanent haircolor in between henna treatments with no problem.

I found it really straight forward and easy to use. I think that with practice it would get easier, but out of the box was pretty easy. I recommend looking on youtube for some videos to give you some ideas. I bought it to airbrush some flower cookies, and I was really pleased with the added detail that the airbrush gave - Good luck!

I was able to color it with a bleach lightener. The color came out pretty good. I received lots of compliments and not one knew I was wearing a lace top. I did not experience any tangles or shedding. Treat this as if if were you own hair and you should be fine. I've ordered it twice and both pieces were the same and the quality is very nice for the price. Hope this helps

You will need to bleach it, which is included in the kit, but after that it will still fade within the firts few washes, leaving you with colored roots and just bleached out hair. The product isn't worth it, I'd try special effects hair dye or sallys pravanna dye.

NOOOOOOOO. Do nottt bleach your hair first. Apply over.What color do you want? My hair was about 4 colors when I last did mine. So I could tell you how it reacted with each.

To be honest I don't know. I dye my hair as well and didn't notice any significant difference in fading hair color. I do know red is the color that fades the quickest so I would probably stick with shampoos and conditioners that are sulfer free.

Yes, you has to bleach you hair first,put de color the most blonde you can, and do. The las time a did, a mix T14 AND T18 This worked very well, on covering up my gray hair, leavy my hair shiny, soft and natural looking!!!!

If you have dyed your hair black in the last four months I wouldn't recommend using this. If it has been over four months then sweet it will be amazing. You will however need to do your hair two times in order to achieve a full and even color. Red does however wash out quickly! ! It goes into an orange color within about 8 weeks. You will only want to wash your hair once or twice a week in very cold water with clear (sulfate free) shampoo as well as conditioner. Red hair should always be dry before you fall asleep because it will rub off on EVERYTHING. I had my hair this bright red color for about 7 months and it costed me around 300.

The answer is: it depends. What is your natural color hair? If it's light brown / medium blonde or lighter, this product will do a great job lightening your hair and will complement your highlights. If your natural hair is darker than that, this product will turn your hair a rusty reddish which may not be the look you're going for. I love this product because my hair is naturally light brown and I also have some grays. I used to get highlights and was spending A LOT of money getting professional highlights. Sun In easily did as good a job as my expensive highlights. I got so many compliments on my color that I now spend $6 a year on instead of $600 a year. My colorist tried to tell me this product is bad, blah blah blah. He just misses screwing me out of a lot if money. If I were you, I would "test" an inconspicuous area towards the end of your hair to see how it looks. If it looks bad, you can get a hair cut easily enough....

No problem it is very easy - I haven't used it for a while but you mix it and then just apply it all over your hair and leave on for 10 minutes. I think it works well and is the best product I've found to get rid of brassiness.

It looks like you would be receiving three packages of the hair dye - which would we enough for three applications. If you apply every 6-8 weeks, like most people, that would last you between 4 and 6 months. If you color every two, like myself, then it will last you a month and a half. The Revlon Colorsilk is less than $4 at Wal-Mart and the Revlon Buttercream (which is the upgraded version and sooo much better in my opinion) is less than $5. At less than $4 a box Wal-mart is a better deal than the three packs here on Amazon. Just something to consider!

My dye wasn't bad/oxidized. I had a great experience with this hair color. First time buyer.

I have the same as you and age wise also. I have used this in the last and I liked it. It will make you light blonde not gray. I have naturally light hair before gray. Leave on longer for better gray coverage and if your non gray hair is not too dark.

This product is NOT a dye. It is a temporary paint-like covering for hair. You would want to use it as a root touch-up between colorings. Yes, it washes out easily but I would not recommend using it on your whole head. The product leaves hair a little stiff and sticky. If you used it on your entire head, it would not look natural.
